It's just not a one person job anymore..

I have been performing reasonably well with it but I just can't fecking handle the pressure and blame.

-Im supposed to: -gank all 3 lanes simultaneously by 3:00, -never fall behind their jg in exp, -always control both scuttles, drakes, heralds and barons -match each of their jungler appearances per lane

If I don't check all the boxes in this list I risk my allies trolling/inting/quitting/tilting.

all while trying to squeeze in farming camps while lane carries take them for themselves and instatroll if I try taxing after netting them a kill...

yo for real fuck that role as it is.

Yesterday I had a game where i lvl 2 ganked bot and gave them first blood. After my first back (around min 5) i ganked bot a second time and we got a kill after that I solo drake. In this time mid got ganked 2 times and died once. Immediately started to blame me after his first death. Called "jngl difference" and me an afk shit jungler. Went mental boom and spam pinged and insulted me for the rest of the game. (He ended his game with 12 deaths btw.)

That's just jungler life. You can camp 2 lanes and make them 10:0 but the third lane will flame you to death. No role is more unthankful than jungle.

Dude this game in general isn't fun anymore. It's run by a bunch of snowflake mods who cater to snowflake players. You get banned for literally anything and because the community is primarily comprised of 10yo crybabies the real players always get fked.

played SR for the first time in about 2months yesterday. Jungle is clearly in a worse state than it was before.

Felt blatently obvious that the only viable solo que junglers are hypermobile gank machines. Clearing felt useless. Mooching lane exp was significantly better than clearing my own jungle, which makes me feel even more forced to play a hypermobile gank machine. Namely Leesin. The level difference between mid and jungle is just cruel. If my mid laner is losing, i have to worry about a lvl7 mid laner running me down in my own jungle while im lvl4....seriously?

Half of the problem is mids don't understand that they are in the best position to be helping junglers, but aren't.

That's fine, the other jungler is supposed to do that as well.

JG Mains upset that they can't simultaneously decided 3 lanes, secure every object, be up in levels, and be able to 1v1 every laner in the game. Damn bro that shit sucks

or we could take pressure off of jungle by just generally making it less important and impactful, shocking concept I know but there's really no need for one role to be so much more game deciding than others.

Don't forget ward for 3 people because your adc and toplaner won't ward so you have to ward for yourself and them.

I've found that /mute all solves a lot of problems. I'm not joking. Try it and see for yourself.

People fail to understand that the Jungles job is not to win your lane for you, and it makes it even worse when someone only has a carry mentality, and refuses to be carried. Maybe jungle isn't the role for you, we've always been trash talked and blamed for almost the past 6 seasons. My mental has never broken except from a duo yesterday that tilted me completely.

This duo bot got ganked by an olaf 3 times brcause they were pushing the enemy underneath tower. I was finally able to gank them, and the enemies got out with almost np hp (they both had stopwatch!). I immediately pinged the infernal drake because it was free to grab and thry had no way to contest it. I asked for assistance and these two didn't move. So I was forced to back from a free drake because I couldn't solo it. Olaf ended up walking up after I backed and killed it. I asked why they didn't help and they said "You didn't help gank us so we didn't help you kill dragon. " those fucking words tilted me and made me lose all my mental capacity.They legitimately griefed me and made me feel like giving up.

hey i get it, im willing to duo jg with you or play a type of champ that can farm bot solo so the "support" can be a duo jg as a full team support or just jg with u

They are buffing jungle xp next patch. That's not at all the case a good jungler knows what to do, no you don't gank all lanes, and the know there are unwinnable games, and mutes chat.

That would be a massive undertaking that would need a lot of xp changes, and we all know how riot is at xp changes lol

nah as a jngler all you need to do is /muteall get one lane stupid ahead, ignore the lane thats loosing the most and the third lane just kinda show up occasionally and keep preasure but primarily just farm if your loosing the game overall. getting even 1 item up or a few lvls on the enemy jngler could really change alot. if your playing jng champs like ww who can easily solo drag after lvl 4, try and keep the enemy jng warded and put a pink on drag and solo it, who knows maybe the extra health regen from ocean will turn around a loosing lane. the only thing you HAVE to do on jng if you wanna win is scuttle, drag, herald, and baron control. that is your main job. you are the jngler and all of those things are in the jungle. im mediocre in the jng at best but even i can pick up a few easy wins keeping all this in mind, trying to do everything yourself especially when even just 1 lane is loosing really bad can be very stressful and you'll just lose if you try to hard to do everything. i reccomend trying to get bot lane ahead because then you get drag control always, and mid lane is a very easy gank spot if you always make sure one side isnt warded.
